A quickly shocking start as after a tragic event, Alita creates something of a new life and finds it in a sport called motorball, and meets new faces and to a lesser extent, old faces. A (100%/Outstanding)

 Many great new characters and concepts in this volume wherein Alita plays a hyperviolent future sport, called Motor Ball, that is akin to roller derby. Lots of speed and action and machines and ideas and weapons and fighting styles. This series continues to shine.

The feel of the story changed completely from the first two volumes. I'm not a fan of where it's going.

Not my favorite volume so far, but there was still some fun to be had here. Alita is now a sports star after the death of Hugo and this has become a sports manga with a bit more violence. Like I said, I didn’t hate, it just wasn’t my favorite. The first chapter was the best chapter in this entire volume.

Has Alita met her match(es) in the Motorball rink? Has Ido acted before considering the long term results of those actions? Did you read these with the voice of Rodger Parsons echoing in your head?

Stay tuned as we head into the fourth volume of Battle Angel Alita!

Ok, I just realized I didn't have this series in Goodreads. I think I read them somewhere around 2000 and I *believe* I borrowed them from someone? It's possible it was a pen pal of mine, but I'm really not sure. I AM pretty sure it was the earlier VIZ edition, that flipped the artwork. This series is a little gory for me at times, but I did like it well enough to finish, and when the movie came out a few years ago I was happy to watch that.

Alita drowns her sorrows by immersing herself in the deadly sport of motorball, while Doctor Ido schemes to get her back. First part of a story arc that continues in the next volume.
